Visual Arts - Installations and Live Painting

JTLA is passionate about supporting artists, as well as educating and inspiring community building through the arts. JTLA curates a wide range of art installations by a variety of artists as well as live painters located throughout the Music Festival grounds.

JTLA also provides opportunities for over 20 artists to create live paintings through the Joshua Tree Music Festival event. This engages the artist with the patron, providing networking opportunities for the artist and enhancing the experience of the patron by surrounding them with ongoing art. On the final day of the Festival, the paintings made on site over the weekend are auctioned off, and half of the proceeds go to the artist, while the other half is donated to JTLA.

Playshops/Workshops

JTLA offers a wide range of opportunities for members of the community and beyond to share passion and skills with others. In partnership with Joshua Tree Music Festival, JTLA offers Playshops that invite the community to engage in learning and experiencing new skills in a fun and inclusive environment. Our Playshops are hosted by professionals. These small group experiences invite each member to participate, contribute, and think/immerse more deeply, co-creating an experience that each participant takes with them into the world. The following is a sample of offered workshops.

More than 40 yoga classes in a variety of disciplines are led by certified instructors at the spring and fall Joshua Tree Music Festivals. The classes are all free of charge to festival goers, and go from sunrise to sunset at the dedicated Yoga stage. Disciplines include Hatha, Vinyasa, Yin, Partner Yoga and Kids Yoga. View thecurrent yoga line-up and schedule at joshuatreemusicfestival.com.

The Healing Oasis is a community of healers from all walks of life, offering many and varied types of healing modalities. Whether you want a massage or a sound healing, you can experience the wisdom and healing of these shamans, witches and therapists as they practice their craft with us. Each healer is chosen for experience and qualification in their field. Group meditation will be offered each day of the festival to help us align with nature, our true selves and the earth we live on. Tea service will also be on hand in the Oasis for those wishing to slow down and contemplate while sipping aromatic teas.
